Don Cherry, the man whose name brands all those “Rock’em Sock’em” hockey videos, was asked about the current Bruins’ injury issues prior to being honored for The Sports Museum this week. “We used to be the ones to give the injuries,” Cherry said about the Lunch Pail AC teams he coached in Boston in...

When posed with a question about this being the time of year he typically finds his groove in goal, Tuukka Rask made a joke Thursday. “I don’t know. Maybe I just don’t want to play in October,” said Rask, after a 2-1 shootout win against the New York Islanders at TD Garden. Rask got a hearty laugh...

Here we go again, just a little earlier than usual. Every year it seems Josh McDaniels’ name gets brought up when it comes to head-coaching vacancies across the NFL and it’s already begun — a full five weeks before the regular season even comes to a close.

Joe Buck might be the most scrutinized sports announcer ever. Over the last two decades, he’s called 20 World Series, five Super Bowls and 19 MLB All-Star Games as Fox’s lead man for its NFL and baseball coverage. His baritone is omnipresent in living rooms across the country, serving as the...

FOXBORO — For as nice as it was to pick up a win Sunday on the road following the blowout loss to the Titans and the bye week, it was still against the Jets. New York entered the game 3-7 and were starting Josh McCown at quarterback, who entered with a quarterback rating below 40 this season. While...

It’s both incomplete and cliché to say that now is the time when Brad Stevens will really earn his stripes as a coach. He’s earned it in spades already with incremental overachievement year after year. His Celtics teams were overachieving, fighting hard and incrementally improving even well prior...

The Red Sox president of baseball operations didn’t build a World Series winner around the margins. He chose the full frontal assault. That meant spending $217...

We are told one of the beauties of America is that consumers can vote with their wallets. Well, the people have spoken time and time again when it comes to their feelings about the NFL’s laissez-faire attitude towards domestic violence: they don’t care. The Redskins’ decision to sign linebacker...
